Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 3653: CoincidenceEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

On the ocean.

The Bone Dragon’s death chains coiled around the ship, pulling it forward rapidly through the air.

”Boss Fang... we just handed those warships over to the Empire like that...”

Cao Ge still felt a pang of regret.

Those warships were worth a fortune.

Even though exchanging them for merit points would bring in quite a lot, he still felt it was a loss.

”Even if we kept all those ships, we wouldn’t be able to find enough people to operate them for the time being,” Fang Heng said calmly. ”Besides, keeping so many ships would only slow us down. Handing them over to the Empire lets us cash them in quickly and also gain more support from the Empire.”

As he spoke, game notifications appeared.

Not bad.

Fang Heng nodded inwardly.

He had earned King of Gods points from wiping out an Imperial army wave.

That was a major benefit.

Right now, his zombie clones still needed a large number of points for permanent transformation.

If there was time, he could consider farming both enemy empires.

As Fang Heng thought, he looked into the distance.

As the sun gradually sank into the sea, darkness quickly spread, and visibility dropped.

Under the overcast sky, even though they had entered contested waters, any nearby ships that sensed the terrifying pressure around them quickly fled, not daring to take another look.

By the time they reached the outer waters of Sea God Island, Fang Heng had already reversed the summoning of the Bone Dragon to avoid unnecessary trouble.

”I can see it, Sea God Island is just ahead,” Cao Ge said, already spotting the faint red mist-covered region ahead. ”We’re almost there! Speed up!”

”Report!”

Two indigenous sailors on the watchtower shouted, ”There are three ships nine nautical miles ahead of us, heading toward our direction. They are flying the flags of the Lyman Empire.”

Hearing this, everyone immediately became alert.

”No need to panic. This is already Sea God Island waters. It’s a safe zone,” Cao Ge signaled everyone to stay calm.

For safety, however, he still ordered the ships to adjust course, avoiding the Lyman Empire vessels and maintaining a safe distance, trying not to provoke them.

”Change course. We will approach the port from the right side of Sea God Island.”

”Yes.”

At the same time, the three Lyman Empire ships also noticed Fang Heng’s vessel.

”It’s an Oz Empire merchant ship,” Captain Cyril said, looking through his telescope with a puzzled expression. ”Strange, merchant ships from the Oz Empire rarely enter this sea region. Since we sealed it off in recent years, we haven’t seen even half a ship. How did they get through the blockade ahead?”

On the main ship, Lyman Empire Third Prince Raygynold took the telescope and observed the merchant ship from a distance.

Raygynold was deeply fascinated by divine power and often visited Sea God Island.

Unexpectedly, he had coincidentally encountered an Oz Empire merchant ship while leaving the island today.

”Heh, it seems the Oz Empire is also interested in the deity of Sea God Island,” Raygynold sneered. ”I’ve never heard of this merchant guild. It’s probably a military ship disguised as a merchant vessel.”

”Most likely,” Cyril agreed. ”Ordinary merchant ships cannot break through the contested sea blockade. Even if our scout ships don’t attack, the Jacques tribe savages would tear them apart.”

”They are changing course. It seems they want to avoid us,” Cyril confirmed.

Raygynold licked his lips slightly as he looked at the ship. ”Cyril, turn as well. Destroy them.”

Cyril frowned and said, ”Your Highness, this is Sea God Island territory. Initiating combat here is not allowed.”

”Not allowed? So what?”

Raygynold looked at the distant ship with excitement in his eyes, ”As long as we wipe them out completely, who can prove it was us?”

Raygynold had just obtained a powerful deity from Sea God Island and was itching to test his power.

Coincidentally, they had run into an Oz Empire ship.

They were just unlucky!

”They are pretending to be a merchant ship sneaking into Sea God Island. They definitely have ill intentions. This time, we can expose the Oz Empire’s conspiracy. Stop them now, and I will report your merit to my father!”

”Yes!”

Cyril was slightly stunned, his eyes also burning with excitement.

”I will not fail Your Highness’ trust!”

He knew the king’s youngest son had a stubborn personality and rarely changed his mind.

To him, this was just a disguised enemy merchant ship, while they had three main warships, all elite forces equipped and staffed to protect the prince.

The difference in strength was overwhelming.

There was no chance of failure.

”Change course! Approach the merchant ship! Energy cannons, aim and prepare!”

”Yes!”

In the distance, Cao Ge saw the three Lyman Empire ships also turning toward them, his brows tightly furrowed.

Fang Heng shrugged. ”Cao Ge, looks like they’re coming for us.”

Huh? Seriously?

Cao Ge was also a bit stunned.

Just moments ago, he had confidently said that everyone would avoid conflict near Sea God Island, but now the Lyman Empire was already moving in for battle.

Cao Ge frowned and said, ”Send them a message telling them this is Sea God Island territory. We have no intention of conflict. Are they trying to start a war here?”

”Captain! They’ve blocked our messages. They’ve entered combat mode!”

Looking up, the three ships had fully raised their cannons into firing position, all muzzles aimed at them.

Both sides were rapidly closing in.
